Download JAR files tagged by glassfish with all dependencies

The JASMINe Deployment Orchestration Tool (JaDOrT) is a tool for orchestrating the deployment of Java EE applications or OSGi bundles (including uploading, activation and version management), maintenance on a group of JOnAS, Glassfish, JBoss, WebLogic and/or WebSphere servers as well as virtual machines (including Hyper-V, VMWare and Xen; but also many other thanks to the LibVirt support). It gives the user a global view on the deployment operation's state, lets the user undo or redo any action, check for errors and persists all information for later analysis.

GlassFish build depends on properly functioning several custom lifecycle mappings and artifact handlers. Because these are necessary to resolve dependencies and to run "gf:run" goal and etc., it is critical that these extensions be made available to Maven early on during Maven execution. This definition was originally in maven-glassfish-plugin, which was integrated into Maven POM through <plugin>/<extensions>true marking, but after a series of debugging to resolve artifact resolution failure problems, it turns out that that doesn't cause Maven to load components early enough. I tried to circumbent the prolem by also registering the maven-glassfish-plugin as an extension module (via <build>/<extensions/<extension>), but that apparently confuses Maven to no end --- I get build errors like this: [INFO] Internal error in the plugin manager executing goal 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-jar-plugin:2.1:jar': Unable to find the mojo 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-jar-plugin:2.1:jar' in the plugin 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-jar-plugin' This is obviously one of the problematic areas of Maven, so to avoid doing hack over hack, I'm simply moving the component definitions to its own module.
